Yep, this is the Imlac I got from Tom after seeing his PDS-1D at VCF.
I traded an old PDP 11 and some spare boards for the PDS-1(a?),
documentation and spare parts.
Now I've got to get a way to load the 4K terminal program into memory
quickly and reliably (my Imlac
has had the core memory replaced with SRAM), and interface it to one of
my HP minis!
Of course the first 'host' machine that comes to my mind is my HP 2116C,
simply because of the
front pannel being such a cool match for the Imlac's programmers console...
Pictures eh? Hmmm, I really ought to get some digital photos of some of
my more interesting machines on
line.
